Not sure what to say?

Tom, Peg and I heard about your father's passing. We are sorry for your loss. I remember him at the cabin in Lake Sebago when we visited you, Grace and Beau. Our kids still talk about that weekend. Randi fell in love with Beau. She found Jessica, our own lab mix! Peter died ten years to the day after my mother. We still own 447 6th Street where you lived for so many years after telling us your tenancy wouldn't extend beyond that first one year lease. We never forgot the thoughtfulness...

Dear Janet and Tom

Just googling old friends today and found Peter's obituary. I am so so sorry not to know and be able to extend my sympathy. PLus I do not see Margaret's name so has she too passed away?

Please let me know if you have a memorial service for Peter. He, as much as anyone. led me down the primrose path of good authors ,particulary British ones, with great delilght in my naivete.

The many Thanksgivings he and Margaret came out to our home(inclduing the time...

I just learned of the passing of Dr. Rose. What a marvelous gentleman. I had the privilege of knowing him through Eaton Corporation and Dr. Geoff Ryding and I so enjoyed his sense of humor, his wit, his brilliance. Dr. Rose left his mark on the world and will be sorely missed. My sympathies to his family and I do thank you for sharing him.

Peter was always a driving force in the implant community. I just talked to Ken Purser and we were both sad to hear of Peter's passing.

Tom and Janet.. Just heard about your dad and you have my deepest condolences. He certainly had a great long life and warms my heart to know that he passed at home. I will never forget the wisdom and fun spirit he shared with all he knew (especially skiing with him!) My life certainly has been fuller having crossed paths starting in 1978. Please keep me informed if you plan a celebration of his life, I would love to see you both again.

To die peacefully at home is the highest award possible. I am very thankful of having had the priviledge to work with Peter in the years 1987-1991. He opened my thinking to an international level. With deepest respect, Hans Loeschner, co-founder and senior advisor of IMS Nanofabrication AG, Vienna, Austria.
